Pairing Medialunas correctly — a note on Malbec

Most people overlook how much the right drink changes Medialunas. I ordered it with Malbec and the herbal and garlicky elements of the dish sharpened considerably against the pairing. chimichurri herbs in particular became more prominent in a good way.

Argentina consumes more beef per capita than almost any other country. The a parrilla grill restaurant is where you learn these pairings — they evolved together. If you've been having Medialunas with the wrong drink, try it correctly once. It's a genuinely different experience. The restaurant deserves credit for getting this right.
